DH ate extra lasagne and didn’t tell me

I’m currently at home with 2 poorly DCs. We are all getting cabin fever so I may be over reacting a little here.

Yesterday I made a big lasagne for our tea. We had it with salad, corn on the cob and garlic bread so it was a substantial meal. There was enough leftover for us to have tonight (planned). I said as much to DH and he said ok fine, he said liked it a lot so was happy to have it again tonight.

I went to bed before DH last night and, unbeknown to me, he had another portion of the lasagne and didn’t say anything to me. Normally not an issue but as I said I was planning on us having it tonight too.

Today has been a hard day with the kids but I thought ‘oh at least dinner is sorted’ except when I went to get the lasagne I was bloody annoyed to see we were one portion down! I hadn’t looked at it all day today as when I put it in the fridge last night there was plenty.

DH was working later tonight so DC and I ate before he got home. I considered giving everyone a smaller portion but then I thought, f$&@ it, we’re having a normal portion and DH can have whatever is left, which is a lot less than he usually would have. He’s now home and very annoyed and thinks I’m selfish and somehow food shaming him for eating the extra last night. He said I should have left him enough, but as far as I’m concerned I did last night!

There is plenty of bread/ baked beans etc. for him to make himself something else but AIBU to be annoyed and not to have left him enough tonight?

"You bitches are twats" - the words of a true intellectual. Grin

The annoying thing about this thread is that I've now spent two days thinking about how much I would like lasagne for supper (not cooked by me, though, because my cooking is crap).

I bagsie 'SecondhandMuck' as a username

DizzyLizzyKizzy · 23/03/2023 19:31

@tunamayo81 ahh and now we're bitches.... you enjoy your evening.

You're really charming....

I'm having reheated shepherds pie for lunch tomorrow!

😋 😋

DizzyLizzyKizzy · 23/03/2023 19:32

@tunamayo81 have you considered taking a freshly made chill pill?

FOTTFSOFTFOASM · 23/03/2023 19:32

@tunamayo81 You can use the word 'twat', you know.

aSofaNearYou · 23/03/2023 19:33

@tunamayo81

no it wasn’t! I suggest you read back properly. I had been abused by lots of the bitches on this thread before i said anything like that. i’m rude because people have been rude to me. i’m off you to enjoy my evening, enjoy your secondhand muck lazy twts!!

Always remember - MN threads are not a "real problem" so however annoyed you are, it's not worth reacting to.

@MissHavishamsMouldyOldCake you have secondhandmuck!

Are you reading any of the responses about waste? Do you need it explaining to you more simply?

Your answers are not coming across as very intelligent I am afraid.

Anyway, if so many people are telling you that food waste is bad, and that reheating is ok, consider the fact that it is you who is wrong. That’s just some (reheated) food for thought.

LadyHaHaHeeHaw · 23/03/2023 19:40

Well I'm a dirty filthy bitch, I'm making a lasagne tomorrow cooking it then putting it in the fridge to have on Saturday or Sunday or maybe both
I may even make it stretch and have the scabby bits in a sandwich on Monday
Will someone pray for me

HamishHero · 21/03/2023 23:03

That is a selfish arsehole reaction.
NB I have never used language like that on MN before. I am furious for you.

🤣🤣🤣

I love the disclaimer! Don’t worry Hamish arsehole is a very mild word for this man.

Honestly, Not really, but i have a lot of life experience and am blessed with perspective, as I know what real problems are. Yes it’s annoying but you just chuck something else in out of the freezer enough for everyone.

How is your sense of perspective doing? ;-)

You are beyond prayer

Mumof3andshattered · 23/03/2023 18:52

So your immediate reaction to being upset about lasagna was to get on mumsnet and whine to strangers ?

I think that’s quite healthy actually. We all need to vent. It saves arguments escalating. Once she vented on here and got our support she was able to talk clearly rationally and honestly with her husband. Well done, OP.

Appalling, I tell you. Appalling!

UndertheCedartree · 23/03/2023 19:50

I don't think he did wrong in eating it last night if he fancied it but his reaction to you having all had your second portion was the issue. Surely he could have just made himself something else?

Yeah, if only he had something like ...

Beans on toast!

Sweetpeasaremadeforbees · 23/03/2023 20:09

So calling us bitches and twats is fine yet heating up food for children is appalling behaviour? Okaay.

Museya15 · 23/03/2023 20:11

I'm still stunned at the support she has gotten over a slice of fucking lasagne. I wouldn't even have given that a second thought

adriftinadenofvipers · 23/03/2023 20:13

tunamayo81 · 23/03/2023 19:23

You think the things that have been said to me are justified because i don’t like reheated food? and i’m rude? haha ok!

You need to re-read what you've written, because yes, you are very rude.

Re-heated food is the least of your worries, if you feed your child "second hand scraps, like a stray rodent"...

Cooked to perfection no doubt 😎

Dutchesss · 23/03/2023 20:15

Has this thread made it to classics yet? 😂 It's entertained me for days.

What a cheak! He ate his portion last night.
